About this Product

Located in Denali National Park and Preserve, Denali (formerly Mt. McKinley) stands 20,320 feet (NAVD88) above sea level, and a world's-highest 17k-19k feet above its base (Mt. Everest measures "only" 12k to 15k feet above its base because the Himalayan Plateau is already two miles high). Everything about this mountain is big. The North face rises an astounding 14,000 feet in just three miles, and the South wall nearly 9000' in a little over a mile. On clear days, it is visible over 100 miles away. This model features the entirety of Denali plus many surrounding ridges, glaciers, and peaks. Mt. Foraker, 14 miles southwest, is 2800' lower but similarly towers over the surrounding ridges and peaks. Only with a true-to-scale 3D model like this can you appreciate the timeless shape of this incredible mountain.

Model scale is 1:59400Model covers an area approximately 11.1 by 11.1 milesAltitudes covered: 5135' to 20320'There is no vertical exaggeration applied to this model. This is a true-to-life scale model of a real place.

TinyMtn models are most affordable in the "White Strong and Flexible" and "Sandstone" materials. This model is in "White Strong and Flexible." When you receive the model, there may still be Nylon dust on it from the printing process. Use either an airbrush, canned dust blower, or a soft old toothbrush to remove this dust. Do not get the "White Strong and Flexible" material wet, and don't prime it or use any oil-based paints on it. You can safely seal it with Polycrylic or a similar water-based clear spray sealant.

The "Frosted Detail" material will show more detail, but is semi-transparent and has an uneven surface texture when unpainted (due to the orientation of the model when Shapeways prints it). It may show up feeling a little greasy and with small crystals in crevasses. Clean those off by soaking the model in warm (but not hot) soapy water and brushing with an old toothbrush. To get the surface to an even matte finish, spray with a few light coats of sandable primer (white automotive primer works), and then do a baking soda grit-blast.

These models have been optimized for the above materials, and are not offered in other materials for strength or cost reasons. If you need one in another material, please contact us and we'll do our best to fulfill your request.
